    I'm fairly certain there's only one version of V2 Godzilla. But you have done what I did, which is tuck the center spine on the back of the neck in between the spines at the start of the torso to get it to go a bit further up.

    For those who are on the fence in getting the Rhino Alien, here's a review by D Amazing with a comparison with the Mantis Alien.



    Plus: One for Space Drake as well

    Sigh, no sign of Pinhead, Annabelle, or Crooked man at my local Targets, so my horror collection continues to be behind

    Does anyone have the Power Loader in their Alien Collection and not too fussed with the top claw on the arms dropping down? I got one as a pre-owned unit, however I'm still undecided on the shipping method to use either DHL or EMS from Japan.

    I know that DHL will get shipped within three days (get dinged with Custom fess) and EMS is delayed for at least three weeks.

    I picked up the Rhino Alien from Target today cuz that's a lot of Alien for $34, even though I kinda got burned on the Mantis. That thing couldn't stand to save its life, no matter what I did. Not to mention it's abdomen-tail broke off...

    Anyway, I have to heat up a couple of the Rhino's joints (pretty much just the second of each of the double joints on the arms and legs), but I think it's gonna be better. The hips seem a bit loose, but I don't think that's gonna be a problem with it on all fours. Really my only complaint atm is that the dome falls off waaaay too easily. Like, it's fine if you don't touch it, but the second you do it practically jumps off of the head.

    Hi,
    I am just needing some info about the NECA brand. I am guessing they only do 7 inch action figures. I do not know how to find out the answers to these questions so I am going to those who do know! I could not locate their phone number....

    How much do they normally cost when they come out? (Specifically looking at the Terminator line)
    What materials do they use in their action figures? (Same as TF? No latex? If possible do they say? I checked their website but they are working on it...)

    Have blessed day!

    My guess would be that the bulk of the body parts for most NECA figures are PVC. They also use stiffer plastics (ABS...maybe POM) for some of the internal joint pieces. But the figures are mostly PVC. Prices for their figures vary, but single 7” scale figures usually go for $25 to $35, depending on the franchise. Most of them are at the lower end of that price range.

    Edit: to my knowledge, they rarely, if ever, use any latex.

    Well, I got the new 84 Godzilla figure and he continues my tradition of having to get a replacement. The mouth on my is molded lopsided so he looks like Gerard Butler when trying to speak. The thing that sucks is while the Target I got him at had 4 more of them, this Target is a little ways away, so I might just wait for my Target to get him in. I just don't understand why I am constantly getting defective Godzillas from NECA every time. I think when the 89 and 02 versions come out I'm just going to buy two and then return the extras if nothing is wrong with the one I open.

    TFs are typically not made of PVC (with the exception of some soft rubbery parts that are used on occasion). Most TFs are likely made of ABS and polycarbonate...except for Masterpiece Hound...he's made of green cheese...
